As all good Bond fans know we are are a matter of hours away from the first official news from the production team, producers, director and principle cast on the still untitled James Bond 23.

As journalists wake to the prospect of news, column inches (or rather website pages) are being filled with predictions.

Even the reliable BBC has a bold headline: “James Bond film title to be announced” with an opening paragraph that clears things up…

No, they do not have sufficient insider info: “The title and cast of the 23rd James Bond film is expected to be announced in London later”.

Tell us what you are most looking forward to hearing about Bond 23 in the comments. On the morning of the press conference at which the title is expected to be revealed the Bond23.net pollsters report that 47% of respondents think the rumored title, Skyfall, is above average.
